Mother-and-child Care Centre

After a preparation phase of more than two and a half years, we were able to begin construction work for the establishment of a Mother and Child Center in July 2025. The project’s first phase includes the renovation and expansion of the existing children’s ward, as well as the construction of a new maternity department with an emergency operating theater on the ground floor and a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) on the first floor. In the second phase, another new building is planned — housing an outpatient clinic for mothers and children on the ground floor and a postnatal ward for mothers on the upper floor. A pediatric intensive care unit, a department for physiotherapy and rehabilitation, as well as a playground are also planned and will be built in close proximity to the children’s ward.

For the renovation and expansion of the children’s ward, we have thankfully received generous support from Kindermissionswerk / Die Sternsinger. According to the guidelines of the Ministry of Health, this ward will include separate rooms for children with internal diseases, surgical conditions, diarrheal diseases, burns, infections, malnutrition, and tumors. For the construction of the new maternity and neonatal intensive care unit, we have already received generous funding from the government, and we are hopeful for further support. Overall, this project will improve the quality of care and reduce mortality rates for mothers and children.
